Actually, I moved slightly different source code: the installed
version returns an error message to non-MIT clients, of the form
Access denied for non-MIT client address 26.1.0.172
This is now running on snork, charon, and yaz.
These are the steps for installing on a decmips machine (they're
essentially the same for an rt).
-- Replace the websterd binary (see /etc/ttys) with the version
in /mit/sipbsrc/decmips/webster/src/server/websterd.
-- Copy /afs/sipb/project/foo-server/charon/usr/local/etc/websterd.ac
to /usr/local/etc/websterd.ac
-- (optional) For syslogging when websterd restarts and when there
are attempted accesses from non-MIT sites, add an entry for
local5.info to nsyslog.conf. If this will write to a log file
(e.g., /usr/adm/websterd.log is used on the three servers
that've been set up already), create the log file and add an
entry for it to newsyslog.conf. I'd guess that there will usually
be less than 10 lines logged per day.
-- Restart websterd and (if needed) the syslog daemon.
